“The Amazing Woodcock.” Dr. Gerry Krausse, a professor emeritus from the URI Dept. of Marine Affairs, has entertained us numerous times in the past with his various video projects—the four seasons on Rhode Island’s refuges, Yellowstone Park, Narragansett Bay’s birds, and Maine’s black bears. He’s back this year with his latest video project, on the American woodcock. The “timberdoodle” is a shorebird that doesn’t live at the shore, with an amazing courtship display that defies description.
